People have been complaining about BPs since I started reading this board. And I don't know why. It's a non-issue except for consignors. If consignors don't want to give up 20 percent to PWCC and would rather give it up to an AH, I get that. But it's just a math calculation for a bidder.

Maybe outrage is an overstatement for this thread, but posters did state the 20 percent BP would cause them not to bid. And I'm like, why?
